A while back a batch of JRB Down hood shells were made with both inside and outsides being green vs the regular green outer and black inner.... They are fully baffled and sew to the point of inserting the down....

Once stuffed the DIYer will close with a 1/4 basting hem then sew a 5/8 rolled hem, Then sew on the omni tape (furnished) then threading the hood draw cord and attaching the two cord locks (also furnished).

If you sleep with a quilt and don't own one of these hoods you are not able to sleep down to the lowest possible temps with your quilt/pad/UQ set up. At this price you are without excuse. IMO, the JRB hood is worth at least 10 degrees to most setups.
